Ok then Eric...
Honestly, your log isn't showing anything too worrying. It's showing 97 seconds for that boot, which really isn't too shabby.
There is only one thing that seems to be slowing the boot slightly.
As you can see from the below screenshot:
(you can see better from my view with the full log). Basically, there seems to be a delay when the PresentationFontCache service starts. It's only a 7 second delay, but during that time, no other services are starting.
Let's have a go at fixing this, or at least help speed it up a bit
Start by making a system restore point.
Create a restore point. I don't expect ANYTHING to go wrong, but just in case. :) So...
Firstly:
- Click Start
- Type services.msc
- Find Windows Presentation Foundation Font Cache
- Double click it and change the start up type to manual, if it isn't already
This should stop it starting automatically.
Secondly, we'll try clearing the font cache as well.
- Exit all other programs running on the computer
- Go back into Services, as above, and find Windows Presentation Foundation Font Cache
- Click Stop the services= in the left hand pane
- Navigate to the following folder - C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\
- Copy all the FontCache.......dat files (starting in FontCache, ending in .dat) to your desktop as a backup then delete them from the original folder.
- Reboot to recreate the font cache.
Any difference? I'm not expecting this to do masses, but we'll see.
Another thing I can see later on in the log is CPU usage. It shows that during start up, a large amount of CPU cycles are being used up by MsMpEng.exe - Microsoft Security Essentials. This settles down after about 140 seconds. So, any large amount of CPU usage seems to be being taken up by MSE. This is really unavoidable and happens with every anti-virus. It's a small price to pay for being protected.
So, honestly, I'm not seeing anything major here.
I do realise that I've not answered your questions:
1) pagefile and search index. what should I do?
2) any program that you would suggest me for a monthly cleaning?
1 - Leave them where they are. Your C: and D: drive are on the same physical disk, so there is no performance gain. If you had a second physical HDD, then there would be a performance gain. But I'd leave them where they are. By leaving them where they are, you also ensure that dump files can be created if you ever have a BSOD (and let's hope you never do). This allows us to analyse the crashes if they were to happen.
2 - Monthly maintenance... The first thing you should be doing once a month at least is backing up your files. I know it's not the answer to your question, but it's something everyone should include as part of their computer maintenance.
Another thing is to do a full malware scan once a month. I would recommend using Microsft Security Essentials and the FREE version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware as a good combo -
Malwarebytes : Malwarebytes Anti-Malware removes malware including viruses, spyware, worms and trojans, plus it protects your computer. Don't start the free trial of Malwarebytes.
It's also good to defrag your HDD. The built in defragmenter is perfectly adequate and you should be able to schedule it to do it automatically.
I use CCleaner once a month to clean out temporary files. Don't use the Registry Cleaning portion though!
CCleaner - PC Optimization and Cleaning - Free Download
Also make sure that Windows Update is up to date, and update the machine if it's not.
Any questions, just ask!
Regards,
Stephen
